Wheelbase Spring Classic Short
Cycling Route
Hard
43.72 mi
3,865 ft
There are two great routes to choose from. Either the long course which is 70 miles or the short course which is 44 miles. Leaving Mill Yard both routes have been designed to include an early timed hill climb over Shap. Supported by Wheelbase the fastest male and female up the 1.7 mile climb will receive a riders jersey and the title king / Queen of the Mountain.
The short route returns via Grayrigg and the long route via Sedbergh. The long route is supported with an optional food and hot drink stop in Sedbergh. This will serve tea and toast and probably a few sweet treats too.
